Subject: 4cb decklist Date: Sun, 7 Dec 1997 14:26:41 EST From: MagkMan598 To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com The following 4cb decklist is the product of many adjustments made due to tourney results and playtesting. Many noteable changes have been made from previous, archetypal 4cb decklists. One such deck revision includes the cutting of Winter Orbs from the main deck. Most 4cb's, prior to the following, would consult with 2-4 Winter Orbs, combined, on the sideboard and main deck. Also, with the Winter Orbs dropped, the Memory Lapse dropped as well. The metagame indicates that everyone else either plays with Winter Orb, or, are very prepared for the likely instance. An adjustment in the creature- choice for the deck is also called for. Frenetics have been added of late, and, are very castable, which may seem contradictory to what most would believe. The main deck Earthquake has evolved into a K-Torch, because on a local level, the Torch's ability is clearly more useful. Here's the decklist: 4 Black Knight 4 Knight of Stromgald 4 Nekrataal 3 Shadow Guildmage 1 Necratog 4 Man O' War 4 Frenetic Efreet ----------24 Creatures 4 Incinerate 4 Kindle 4 Diabolic Edict 1 Kaervek's Torch 1 Disenchant 6 Swamp 4 Undiscovered Paradise 2 Gemstone Mine 2 City of Brass 2 Reflecting Pool 1 Mountain 1 Island 1 Rocky Tar Pit 1 Bad River 1 Sulfurous Springs 1 Underground River ----------22 Land Sideboard---------- 2 Winter Orb 4 Pyroblast 1 Earthquake 3 Hydroblast 2 Disenchant 1 Honorable Passage 1 Perish 1 Necratog Notice the exclusion of such 187 creatures as the Cloudchaser Eagle and Uktabi Orangutang. These should be added accordingly to the deck/sideboard based on the local metagame. Other possible creature choices for the deck include Dauthi Slayer, or the other 187's. Knight of the Mist could easily be added to the sideboard. Questions, comments, or PAGER NUMBERS can be emailed to MagkMan598@aol.com I can also be contacted at the home of Kevin Baker's mother.
